Periodically, the filter cartridge will need a more thorough cleaning to 

remove imbedded oils and minerals. For this, we suggest cleaning as 

illustrated in step “F”, followed by soaking the filter overnight in a plastic 

container filled with a solution of water and specially formulated filter 

cleanser available from your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. The average life 

expectancy of each filter is approximately two years with proper care and 

water quality maintenance. Replacement cartridges may be purchased 
from your authorized Jacuzzi dealer.
